Female Highlanders.
So far all I have seen is this early concept sketch,
http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/a...ensa05/052.jpg
and this blurry image that may be a female highlander.

How can I complain that they look too much like female midlanders and aren't buff enough if I haven't seen them yet!? :p
Can we have some more images please?

In the final fantasy world wouldn't they be off tending to the chocobos instead of in the kitchen?
I can see it now, a marvelous highlander female petting a chocobo with braided hair, calming a chocobo and speaking to it with a cockney accent.
Lalafells belong in the kitchen. -

Keep in mind the jp love their fanservice, and froegadyn have the spot for tough buffness.

12-12-2012, 05:18 AMThebardHardly anyone will even play froegadyn, except maybe http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z...-N/gramul2.png and a handful of others seeking some tail.Quote:

Rather have a new race and just have humans (big or small) imo. Never really liked Highlanders much.. except when they prance around naked. That's okay. You go ahead and strip for me mr muscle man<3

I don't know if you really weren't sure about it or if you were just messing around but that picture in the coliseum gear is a female highlander. If you watch the subtitled producer letter they explicitly say it's a female highlander.

No I don't want them to be bulkier lol ; ;
I like the way they went with it, its not like highlander is suppose to be that much different then midlander.
Besides I think shes the right amount of "buffness" anymore and they will start to resemble female roe or elezen female.
Cant wait for 2nd benchmark so I can play around with female highlander, might have to change to it ^_^ -

All I can keep thinking is ... "there can be only one"

If that's a screenshot of a female highlander, then either the quality's bad or they're way skinnier / dramatically less badass-looking than I expected. If I wanted to play a midlander, I'd play a midlander. This is pretty disappointing, but I'll wait to reserve final judgement until I see them in-game.

hehe, yeah IF I could extract the .dat data in XIV for Hildebrand I would love to use his 3D model for my signature! :D
but for now Sephiroth will have to do.
,but yeah, this sig captures the essence of the forums just perfectly in my opinion! :D -
12-13-2012, 10:15 AMWarlockyeah biggest difference is the face paint,hair styles and that they are more than? i noticed they got better curves than midlanders kinda Amazon girls :DQuote:

I'll possibly make a Highlander girl character, but I don't know what I'd name her.
-
12-14-2012, 01:33 AMNaraku_Diabolos
Nah, I'd name her an Irish name.
-
12-14-2012, 02:01 AMGemmaI had made a thread awhile back asking about Highlander naming and they said they will be releasing the naming patterns with the lore book they are making, said hopefully it will be out before beta so wOOt! ^_^Quote:

From a Localization thread:
"Hello all!
Believe it or not, all three 'missing' character types have legitimate background stories as to why they weren't around in 1.0. These stories were actually conceived way back before the original launch, with plans on releasing all the juicy details via quests. Unfortunately a little thing called "Meteor" threw a wrench (spanner, for you sophisticated types) in those plans, and here we are.
While the lorelords have deemed it still a bit too early to release that forbidden knowledge, you can rest assured knowing that the stories will all be revealed in ARR. I personally enjoy the background for the female Highlanders. Let's just say they haven't been merely tending cookfires and mending tents these past few years. Those ladies are TOUGH.
As for naming conventions, you won't have to wait for ARR's release for those, as we hope to have a comprehensive guide out sometime during before or right after the launch of Beta. It will cover all 5 races (including both clans and both sexes) and should include a Roegadyn dictionary to help those looking to make a Sea Wolf.
I apologize for not being able to reveal anything with substance today, but the good stuff is right around the corner! We're almost there!"-Fernehalwes -

WOOT! I'm excited, now I might really have to go female highlander >_> lol
-
12-14-2012, 11:09 AMLinkurrraHa! Very nice share Warlock! We appreciate the info a lot!Quote:

Yoshi-P is leaving no stone unturned in ARR! This will be a truely epic FF MMO! -
12-14-2012, 11:34 AMKirohGiving Yoshi credit for something that was clearly stated to have existed before the launch (launch, as in over 2 years ago) of 1.0 is probably not productive, nor based in reality of any sort.Quote:

And that there might have already been stories for them for 1.0 to be added later.
However, making it all tie in with Bahamut and Dalamud, that's all Yoshi-P's baby!
Man, everybodies so nitpicky on the details. lol -
